39. Passion, Praise & Getting Personal

Glennon Doyle and Audacy
About this episode

1. Glennon makes a “pod-pology”—and why we should stop saying, “I can’t imagine.” 

2. Amanda makes the case for no longer praising people as “superheroes”—and why we should stop giving them lip service and bring them a sandwich instead.  

3. How we abandon things we love because the environments surrounding them are unbearable—and how to recreate the environment and reclaim what we love.   

4. Amanda’s reaction to her new role opening up on the podcast—and how she feels like the very intimate stories she shares are “not personal at all.”
